    Hopefully this works. :)

    Can't seem to get the file bases to sync up, however. Where should I look first? I'm sure it's something simple.

    Thanks!

    It does :) Hello!

    Can't seem to get the file bases to sync up, however. Where should I
    look first? I'm sure it's something simple.

    You can send a netmail (make sure you use a netmail base) to 21:1/100 using your areafix/filefix password and add the file bases to you feed.

    You *can't* do the same thing as echomail (at this stage) and ask the HUB to rescan all the files to your BBS. But if you're linked then any new files hatched out will be sent to your system

    Best, Paul

    Who does the message get addressed to at 21:1/100? Or are you saying my password goes in "To:" line?

    I have the file bases added and selected fsxNet net address. Also set the Export To but I'm not sure if I want that, since I only want to receive and
    not allow uploads at this point (if at all?)

    Thanks for the help!

    You send a netmail addressed to Filefix

    The address to send it to is 21:1/100

    In the subject line you type in your password e.g. PASS999 <-- this is not
    a real password and no lamas were hurt in the making of this comment :)

    Then in the body of the message try typing

    %HELP

    on a single line

    Then save and send and see if you get a reply with further HELP info from the HUB when you poll it again in 1-2 mins time :)

    the Export To but I'm not sure if I want that, since I only want to receive and not allow uploads at this point (if at all?)

    Correct, you don't need to set the export to... leave that blank :)

    Thanks for the help!


    Anytime :)
